Introduction
Jacques Crahay:
Crahay is and what he needs to tell us. His pictures are sometimes
theatrical, sometimes bavarde, and sometimes very elegant and
clear. Many of his paintings originate in the philosophical a
pictorial depiction of a concept, a subjective, emotional interpretation
of something more general. His language is rooted in archetypes.
The exhibition is accompanied by four lectures which Jacques
Crahay has agreed to give. They are on the profession of painter
and provide us with a better understanding of what it means to
be a professional painter. They deal with the preparation of the
materials, the colours and the act of painting. In the fourth lecture
he will be accompanied by a Belgian flautist, Mr Quentin Manfroy,
and together they will explore some of the relations between
music and painting.
Cedefops exhibitions have always been a way to contribute to
the cultural life of Thessaloniki and to show our commitment to
our environment, but they are also an opportunity to bring artists
from other Member States to Greece. Finally, these exhibitions
reflect on the close relation between education, work and culture.
